While the Pittsburgh faithful have bombarded BaltimoreSportsReport.com and we’ve thrown are insults back and forth, let’s both Steelers and Ravens fans take this moment to collectively make fun of the Indianapolis Colts.
Last week I singled out the Indianapolis fans for nearly failing to sell out a home playoff game against the New York Jets. Thankfully they rallied together and forced their entire city to watch as Rex Ryan and the Jets embarrassed them in front of the entire country. Aren’t you glad that didn’t get blacked out?
This week things have gotten even better. Of course there was Reggie Wayne who told the media that he “shouldn’t have even suited up,” after catching just one pass to against Darrelle Revis and the “fire Jim Caldwell threads have taken off. So I ventured out to the Indianapolis message boards yet again to find out what the Colts “faithful” had to say about their beloved Peyton Manning (now 9-10 in the post season).
I was told that Coltfreaks.com was garbage, so this time I went to the IndyStar.com forums.
- RaulDukes said that Manning should only return if the Colts get rid of Jim Caldwell.
- SteelerSteve1, who believe it or not I learned to love in this discussion said that Manning has a future in TV. “Hell, if Bill Cowher’s ugly mug can be on a studio show, you know there’s a place for Manning.” He also backed Baltimore fan’s, saying that “at least when the Browns moved to Baltimore (with league approval) they had the decency to leave the team name, colors and history behind.”
- PatsTroll talked the Colts fans off the ledge in a thread dedicated to firing Jim Caldwell, saying that there’s no point in firing a head coach if the QB can only score 16 points in the playoffs.
At least Indy will get to enjoy Peyton Manning on the countless commercials he will be on between now and the Super Bowl.
Well done, Zach. I resent all the air time dedicated to Peyton Manning. (ads, commentators).
I'm sure his laundry bill is the lowest in the NFL…"Don't touch me, please don't touch me!"
Thanks CSF!
Unlike CSF, none of my Indy friends from last week have come back…I can't figure it out. They were so confident last week. Peyton and the Pace Cars home watching on the tube…classic.
Right on MGW, amazing is it not? The best fans (insert fanatics here) are in the AFC North.
Where I live, most people are Colts or Pats fans. It's a struggle to be civil to some of them.

Sounds like someone has a grudge againest the Colts leaving Baltimore….I remember when they were in Baltimore playing before 10,000 fans.
Bet you remember prohibition too.
I cant wait for the day when all the baltimore colts fans pass on … so that way there will be no more people who remember when the colts where in baltimore, you got a good team in the ravens, what more do you want? Lets see if the ravens would be as good with there 5th string safety and numerous other street free agents playing? I doubt it … but then agian the ignorance that is born on the east coast know no bounds!
It's comical when someone whines over the owner of a franchise taking the teams name, colors, and logo along with them to another city. If the owner buys the Colts and moves the team then he gets to take everything he bought and that includes the horseshoe. The Colts history will always include Baltimore, the good and the bad, which includes the city of Baltimore and the state Of Maryland treating the franchise like dirt right to the bitter end.
One of top photos ever, Mayflower moving van in the middle of the night with snowflakes flying. Choke on it Zach!!
Choke on this Andy…Baltimore hoisted a Lombardi eight years sooner than Indy, despite not having a team for 11 years. Even with your so called "great QB" you have as many trophies in the case as Trent Dilfer and the Ravens. Peyton is a paper lion, king of meaningless stats and regular season games. How about this stat, 9-10 in the playoffs for the "Great Peyton".
Love it…like the "Great Houdini" eh? OK enough with the Colts. Who cares, right?
I think we need to start looking at a wager on Saturday's game between 2 real football teams…any ideas?
I like Peyton Manning……………
So your "job" is to run around trolling team message boards cherrypicking quotes?
Go to any team's official message board and you'll find people posting ridiculous things. It's just the nature of the beast, fans anonymously posting reactionary and emotional nonsense. I'm sure there's people saying dumb things on Ravens boards too.
And lol at making fun of Indy for almost not selling out home playoff games…at least Indy can get home games. When's the last time the Ravens played at home in the playoffs? Oh wait, I remember, it was when they lost to Indy.
Keep laughing at Indy Colts fans, I'll keep laughing at this lame wordpress "journalism"
What is it with these Indy Pacecar fans and "lol"? OMG are they all 13 year old girls? Where's your smiley face lol? You know, OMG, : )
As long as you keep reading…
I wish it was my job…
Hmmm…sounds like someone needs a nap. I, like, Zach could care less about what once was, who left town etc. etc. Ancient history.
It's Peyton that most of us can't stand. He's a robotic, colorless player with too many television ads and too much said about HIS stats. No scrambling, never runs down the field to join in the celebration; he trots off like its HIS due or scowls on the sideline and rolls his eyes when a teammate misses one of HIS passes. I am so glad we have neither Manning in the final 8.
Most of what people are saying above is true but Manning has handed the Ravens their lunch many times. He might only have one SB ring and he might be 9-10 in the playoffs, but his record against the Ravens is pretty good, probably pretty good against the Stillers too. Give the guy his due, then lets get back to a discussion on this weekends game.
poor ravens fans …. us colts fans see that people like Zach (and me for that matter, I wasn't born until a month after the Colts arrived HOME in Indy!) Are simply jealous of all the but kickings we have handed to the Ravens. You are right, it is all about the RINGS and we only have one … guess what? Until Caldwell is gone we probably won't get another … If I were peyton I would retire before playing in an 18 game season and I think the glory days of football are long gone (Even though I am a Colts fan) the rule changes to help our offense are absord … let the recievers and the dbs fight it out … player safety my ass (see I can jibber jabber about random stuff too) Ravens fans guess what? You are lucky you didn't have to play us other wise it would be an early exit for the ravens once again GO GET F**KED!
Wow John, do you kiss your mother with that mouth?
You guys are pathetic! Get over it Baltimore in the 80’s was a dump and the city wouldn’t do whatever it took to save their beloved Colts. Yeah, you guys are really that much better, you stole the Browns from Cleveland (they did leave their names and colors-that was really classy, ask any fan from Cleveland.) Get over it you have the Ravens now support them and stop thinking about the past, btw what is Ravens record against Manning?? Thought so!!
The don’t call ’em Baltimorons for nothing!
